Port Authority Building Mosaic, 14th Street IND Eighth Avenue station, Chelsea, Manhattan.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A mosaic, likely an original IND mosaic, pointing to the Port Authority Building (111 Eighth Avenue) outside fare control in the south end of mezzanine of the 14th Street IND Eighth Avenue station, at 14th Street and 8th Avenue in Chelsea / West Village, Manhattan. This mosaic is probably original or restored, as it is recessed into the wall from the newer tiles, and is one of the only original ones in the station (the rest are poor modern knockoffs). The Port Authority Building, now occupied by Google, is located at 15th Street where there is an exit from the mezzanine. Perhaps at one point one could access the exit without paying, and it was likely for BMT customers.
